Description
An authorization bypass exists due to inconsistent enforcement between the REST API and the Server-Sent Events (SSE) streaming interface. The Pub/Sub interface uses a
token required decorator that authenticates requests by matching the X-API-KEY header against a user API key but fails to verify if the account is active or confirmed. Since API keys are issued during self-registration before confirmation is complete, unauthorized users can access the /pubsub/subscribe/<topic> endpoint. This allows access to stream events, such as unmoderated comments, that are otherwise restricted via the REST API.Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
